Q: Short term cash US cash investment.
Hello 51 team,

I have a portfolio at Nat Bank, using NBC101 to park cash; however, it is a bit inconvenient as it required at least 2 days between selling and buying the mutual funds and another day until it posts in our account while ETF is the same processing rule as equities.
I appreciate having your thoughts on using ETF instead==> ICSH vs JPST
What are the difference between the 2 and which one will be your pick?
I noted that ICSH (lower fee .08%, smaller size) vs JPST (higher fee, much larger size). Thank you!

Q: I have a problem because of you and I bet you hear this a lot <grin>…my Shopify holdings have grown out of hand and now represent 20% of my TFSA.

I think I should trim SHOP and reinvest in another growth company. Can you give me some suggestions?

Thanks for your help.

Q: What is your outlook for BTC? It seems it has been consolidating since may. Do the technicals suggest it is due for a breakout?

Be the maximum reasonable position size for BTC?

Please comment on my move. Feel free to admonish me know if needed.

Q: Good Morning,
I currently hold a small position in SMCI at the break even point. I’m considering selling SMCI and adding VRT or ISRG for a solid growth name. Is this a move that you would endorse, and if so, which one would you choose at current levels. Feel free to include any alternative names if you see fit.
Thank you,

Q: Hello 5i team,
In light of ANRG slowly going back up, I am curious what the underlying problems were with the company? Ultimately it always comes down to too much debt, but that is only a result. Was it bad management or simply a bad high capital idea (converting waste to fuel). Looking at the recent new money being put in (Marny/insider purchases) it seems people are still confident in this company.

Are there other companies in this space that have actually succeeded in doing this?

Thank You,
Andrew
